Easy Apple Muffin Directions

This is my Basic muffin recipe that you can customize to any flavor. For step 4 add in “special” ingredients of your choice. Such as blueberries or chocolate chips. 

I use a large liquid measuring cup and this is easy.

  1. Fill measuring cup with 3/4 cup milk. Add oil to the 1 cup line, add egg and mix.
  2. In a small mixing bowl mix the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Form a hole in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients. Quickly mix with a fork about 20 seconds.  Batter will be lumpy.
  4. Add in the apples and gently mix them into the batter.
  5. Scoop into lined, or greased, muffin tins about 3/4ths full
  6. Mix topping ingredients in a small bowl with a fork. It will be crumbly. Sprinkle on muffins.

Bake at 400F for 15-18 minutes.

Depending on the size of your muffin tins or muffin wrappers, this easy apple muffin recipe makes 6-9 muffins.
